Hell yeah I can cook. I even personally kill most of what I eat.

I may be a savage but, I dine well.

Jamie Oliver? Don't know her. Does she have big honking boobs?:D

My friends and family often went hiking in the mountains, so grilling stuff is easy, my favourite being lamb chops :P But that probably only counts as caveman cooking :P

On the other hand I've been known to make a pretty good "Spaghetti Con Carne" special. :D

I'm a Chef in training at the moment, but once I get my certification I'll be known as Chef Larry. So I can cook more then Just Breakfast, dinner, snacks, and lunch. But I can do it with style :)

I hate cooking. I can follow recipes and stuff, I just prefer not too (plus I never have all the ingredients). So some of my meals come out rather interesting, that is when I do actually eat. Usually I go to my mother's house once a week and thats pretty much my meal for the week. Otherwise its just vegemite on toast, two minute noodles, rice and frozen vegies. Sometimes cheese and tuna if I can afford it.

Has anyone accidently made Reeses Chocklate?

I did once when I was experimenting with chocklate and penutbutter.

What I did was use a small-medium bag of Herseys Kisses. The added like 4-5 table spoons of penutbutter into a skillet and add just a tad of milk (1/2 a cup of milk.) After about like 4-5 minnutes of stirring of 120 degrees, it started to look like Reeses, however it didn't smell anything like it.

After it looked done I carefully used a spoon to scoop it into a container and placed it in the freezer for about an hour. I took out and ate it. It was REALLY good. I might have discovered Reeses Fudge.

If you are planning to do it, and is not quite an adult, I suggest doing it with a parrent or guradian. It can be quite messy even for 1 person alone. :)

I would have to put 'I am not bad'.
I'm not great, but I am not terrible, either.
It's hilarious when people are surprised that I can actually cook.

A great time for me to use the phrase: EAT IT!

I am not a good cook, but I am not bad either! When I know how to do it, I will do it really well :) Hardly ever burn anything, and people are either very polite, or it really is good.

I guess I can cook. Me and my partner made a pasta dish the other night. We made it using paste(duh), tomato sauce, meatballs and sliced/diced bacon bits. When served we put a load of cheese on the top :) We've also had a chicken, bacon and cheese thing which was bloody lovely. Cooked the chicken, put a slice of cheese on top and then wrapped some cooked bacon round it ^_^

I guess it really depends on what you mean by 'cooking' but I can make a number of dishes fairly competently, and am learning how to make more things as time goes on. Will I ever be an award winning chef? Maybe not, but I wouldn't be embarrassed to serve my food to others either.

There is a difference how we make cakes and how she makes them :) But cakes take experience, patience, and a bit of love. And they can be awesome.

I can cook pretty much anything. Being bothered on the other hand.

I still hate cooking - it is very physically painful at times, I am now aware when I need to rest and it is MUCH easier to cope with. Also cleaning is heaps easier too with a dishwasher. Cooking for two is easier than one, but very expensive. I spent a lot of money on food over the last year. I have been growing what I can but its not sustainable. I look forward to making a more productive garden in the next place.

I keep being told that I am quite a good cook. I cooked up all the food for my last birthday party (30 ish people) and got heaps of compliments. Unfortunately I spent most of that night vomiting from the effort the cooking took, and didnt get to eat much of it myself. I had done it in advance too! But hadnt rested enough.

Its going to be tricky to balance my diet for one again, especially as my next home is over 100km away from the main shops! I really enjoy a simple potato with greek yogurt, spinach and pink salt. Sometimes I will add some cheese or an egg. Its my "go-to" safe and easy meal, knowing I wont react to it.

Oven baked chips are also an essential part of my diet :p

I love cooking, and I am terrible at it. I love eating what I eat, unless I spent too much time on it and it just ended tasting completely different than expected. If something tastes differently than expected, it is a blargh moment and I just don't want to eat it anymore.

Pending some projects (that fall through now) I would have had a little Sony action cam 4k that would have come with a protection layer in front of it, so I could hang it over the stove (or a little to the side) and have a second camera to cooking a few things for my youtube channel.

Now I won't be able to get that cam, so I have to rethink what we're going to do with that. My kitchen is a mess too now, so NO RUSH

I can cook, but often I get so either stuck in a rut or I get lazy and don't bother cooking proper meals. This year I'm going to try to find recipes that I can do well but are different to what I usually do. So far I've learnt to make banana bread this year. I think this is going to be my next challenge

Tonight I am going to my parents to make some scrambled eggs, with sundried tomatoes and tiny bits of potato. Make some toast, and put it on there. Hopefully it will turn out nice.
